The news of yet another setback to the highly anticipated new Travel System for Europe is a huge disappointment to travelers across the continent. As of now, the travel system, which was originally projected to launch in 2020, has been pushed back to 2025. This news was made public after European Council President Charles Michel released an official statement on the situation.
The new travel system was intended to make inter-European travel more streamlined and efficient for both citizens and visitors. It promised to provide a secure, fast and efficient way to get around Europe, in addition to providing a hassle-free e-passport system and other innovations. The system was also expected to create thousands of new jobs in the travel industry.
Unfortunately, due to various technical issues and delays in implementation, it appears the system won’t be implemented until 2025. The European Council has attributed the delay to the complex nature of the project and the need for a thorough technical assessment by experts in order to guarantee safety and security. They also pointed to the need to integrate the system into other transportation systems across Europe, such as the Schengen area, to ensure maximum compatibility.
Despite the delay, the European Council is still committed to its goal of providing a comprehensive and efficient travel system. They remain adamant that the transplantation of the travel system will benefit travelers all over Europe. For now, travelers will have to wait until 2025 to experience the new transport system.
